80:20 Communications Wins Global Brief from Gardner Aerospace

80:20 Communications is celebrating its appointment by Gardner Aerospace, the international aerospace components manufacturer, on a global trade and corporate PR brief.

The agency will promote Gardner Aerospace’s manufacturing excellence to trade audiences throughout Europe, North America, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific, highlighting the group’s role as a tier-one component supplier for aircraft including the Airbus A380, A350 and A330neo.

Marc Cornelius, 80:20 Communications’ founder and managing director, says: “Gardner Aerospace has undergone extensive modernisation and international expansion in recent years. It is a consolidator in a fragmented industry, responding to aircraft manufacturers’ wish to deal with fewer, larger suppliers. With world-class supply chain capabilities, the group has an excellent story to tell and we are delighted to have been chosen as its international PR partner.”

Nick Sanders, Gardner Aerospace’s executive chairman, adds: “80:20 Communications was a natural partner for Gardner Aerospace due to its extensive network of global media contacts and expertise in aviation and aerospace. We were looking for a partner who understood the intricacies of our business and how to reach our key audiences, which 80:20 clearly demonstrated.”
